Board schedules firefighter disciplinary hearing for June 18
Summary
The Hammond City Board of Public Works and Safety scheduled a disciplinary hearing for a firefighter on June 18, 2026, at 9:45 a.m. and asked staff to send the required statutory notice to the firefighter and their attorney.
The Hammond City Board of Public Works and Safety set a disciplinary hearing for a firefighter on June 18, 2026, at 9:45 a.m., after a department representative told the board the firefighter had requested a hearing. "We've coordinated a date with his attorney of 06/18/2026 at 09:45AM," Mr. Smith told the board and asked that the board send the statutory notice to the attorney and the firefighter.
Board members said the date was chosen so regular business could proceed before the hearing; the Chair and a committee member both recommended that the notice be issued promptly, and the board agreed to proceed with sending the notice while acknowledging calendar conflicts could require rescheduling. The board did not take further action on the personnel matter at the meeting.
